Where I got it: I got this lovely goodie bag from Manuka Doctor as part of their recent Easter Challenge! Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to physically be at the store at Downtown Auckland, but my sister was nice enough to pick it up for me. Currently, there is a Whittaker’s Big Egg Hunt in Auckland and there is a lovely big Queen Bee egg in the Manuka Doctor store. Click here to find out more about the egg hunt!
What I got: In the goodie bag, there is a packet of the Manuka Doctor ApiClear 3-in-1 Purifying Facial Wipes (click for review), a bottle of ApiRefine Radiance Serum and a Lindi Kingi Design Bracelet (single Lava and Silver Bracelet $35.00).
How I find it:
ApiRefine Radiance Serum ($35.95 for 30ml). (with Purified Bee Venom & UMF18+ Manuka). Boost your skin’s radiance with the Manuka Doctor ApiRefine Radiance Serum. The Manuka Doctor ApiRefine Radiance Serum is a luxurious finishing serum with an immediate illuminating effect to instantly boost your skin’s radiance for a more even complexion. This new generation of skincare helps correct visible signs of ageing by brightening age-related dull skin tone whilst instantly tightening to smooth away fine lines and wrinkles. The serum has a lovely pearlescent particles to give you that brightening effect on the skin. It reflects light gently without making your skin looking shiny or sparkly. After cleansing and toning, I simply massage 1-2 pumps of this serum into my face and neck. I then follow with a moisturiser and sunscreen during the day.
Overall: To really help with brightening the skin, daily application of sunscreen is a must. If you are out in the sun for long hours, reapplication is very crucial. This serum provides immediate brightening and illuminating effect by adding reflective particles. It also provides long lasting brightening effects by moisturising and enhance cell renewal. Dead skin is shed and new skin emerges. This serum is be great for overall skin tone evening and everyday brightening. But I find that this is not strong enough for acne scars and hyper pigmentation, I need something much stronger.
